No, very much alive. I did something and then there it was. It was seeking the heat of the engine and wanted to climb up into the bike. I had to move it away in the end.
Harmless though, except for biting..

I'd be more afraid of that snake than 8" of sand.

Are you sure it says 107,000 miles? It seems to have been stuck there for about twelve years.

Wow, that's the spitting image of my old cat, who once wiped out a whole family of rabbits. She liked garden snakes, too! The cat was a true hunter.

I spent many joy-filled years riding the roads in Sussex County. It was so sad when the time came for me to move away. I don't know how it is now, but 20 years ago it was a rider's paradise.
